Obama wins Wyoming
By Michael J.W. Stickings
I'm sure the Clinton campaign will spin the result with a heaping of the usual excuses -- even though Hillary, Bill, and Chelsea campaigned there -- but Obama has won today's Wyoming caucuses by a wide margin.
With 91 percent of precincts reporting, and with huge turnout, Obama has a decisive 58 to 41 lead over Clinton -- for more, see Jeralyn Merritt, who has been live-blogging the event.
And so now it's on to Mississippi March Madness next Tuesday.

Update: With 96 percent of precincts reporting, Obama is up 59 to 40.
Update 2: Final result -- Obama 61, Clinton 38. (For more, see Cillizza and the AP.)

Obama is too formidable a candidate to be driving Miss Daisy around.

And the delegate count was much closer than the result.
When Hillary wins, you guys are all over that. When Barack wins, but barely ekes one delegate more, crickets chirp.
I wonder why...
